Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's..." So begins H. G. Wells' classic novel in which Martian lifeforms take over planet Earth. As the Martians emerge, they construct giant killing machines - armed with heatrays - that are impervious to attack. Advancing upon London they destroy everything in their path. Everything, except the few humans they collect in metal traps. Victorian England is a place in which the steam engine is state-of-the-art technology and powered flight is just a dream. Mankind is helpless against the killing machines from Mars, and soon the survivors are left living in a new stone age. Includes the original Warwick Goble illustrations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unnamed narrator from Woking, England, begins by comparing the unsuspecting human population to the contents of a slide on a microscope, those contents as unaware of the beings observing them as the Earthlings are of the Martians with "intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic" who watch them as they go about their daily activities. He claims Mars is older than Earth and wonders why man-"so blinded by his vanity"-has failed to recognize for so long the probability of the existence of intelligent life on its neighboring planet. He observes that just as Mars is cooling as it ages and its inhabitants long for a younger, verdant world, so too must humanity face the same fate. Foreshadowing the destruction the aliens will bring, the narrator reminds readers of the cruelty that humans have also brought on their fellow beings, as when native Tasmanians were wiped out by British colonialists off the coast of Australia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story begins in an observatory, where an astronomer notices that Mars, older than Earth, has experienced a sudden drop off in sea levels and temperature. Its inhabitants seek a way off of their planet in order to survive these changes, and they achieve this by firing themselves off of Mars in canisters. From Earth, one only sees sudden explosions on the surface of Mars, but this fascinates the scientific community.One canister lands near the narrator's home. It opens and a Martian comes out. It is nearly the size of a bear and greyish with large eyes and tentacles. The Martians dislike Earth's atmosphere and retreat back into the canister. A human delegation, including the astronomer, approaches while waving the white flag of peace. The Martians vaporize the humans with a Heat Ray before continuing to assemble their machinery.The British military arrives, and the entire small town of Woking is stuck in a tense standoff. After receiving heavy fire from the military, the Heat Ray suddenly erupts. The narrator takes his wife to a neighboring town, hoping that she will be safer there. He returns to Woking to return a cart, but a new Martian weapon forces him to crash. The Martians have constructed Tripods-brutal, three-legged robots, manned by Martians. Each has a heat ray and a chemical weapon, known as Black Smoke. These Tripods quickly destroy most of the military and Woking, leaving wreckage in their wake. An artilleryman warns the narrator that another canister has landed nearby, which separates the narrator from his wife. The two try to escape Woking, and they hear that the military has taken down a Tripod by the Thames, a great victory.The Martians are now retreating towards Woking. The narrator fashions a raft and tries to float down the Thames stopping at Walton. There, he meets a curate, with whom he teams up. The Martians break the line of defense around London and release the Black Smoke, causing a mass exodus from London. The novel's point of view then switches to the neighbors' brother, who is now a refugee from London. He flees to the Essex coast, a journey he completes with all the other refugees. The brother saves a family from being robbed, and the family then comes with him. They buy passage on a ship to America, but just as they are about to leave, Martians appear and almost destroy the ship. However, just in time, another ship called the HMS Thunder Child rams the Tripods, destroying itself but allowing the other ship filled with civilians to leave.
